ReplyDeleteseriously woman. does the word 'drama' mean anything??
ReplyDelete;) kidding!!!!
i think you had a good number of people ready to dial 911 on you.
what is nine in chinese? __ er er.. i'd like to report a missing adoptive blogging mom. last seen crying in the lobby of the Victory. easily identified by her smeared mascara. she would have 6 boys. yes- 6. no. i'm not kidding. she has 6 boys.... yep- the conversation woulda gone somethin like that:) i mean i was up (having a pre-menopausal moment) at 2:30 AM last night and checked your blog-- sonia! remember-- it's all about us-- your loyal stalkers!!!!
ok- so they look awesome- you guys all look great! i love seeing the "sometime soon" become "now"
so- what i DO expect is a full dissertation (x2) on the boys- what it was like- all the details.... etc etc. etc. leave no stone unturned!
love!
e;)
Thank you!! I guess it figures you fell asleep too. :) LOVE THE PICS!! Thanks for being so kind to share your journey with us.

ReplyDeleteIll repost my comment later.. it didnt' sound right. :O) trying to get my kids in bed! sorry!! LOL
ReplyDeleteand what in the world is in their mouths? are those lollipops? chicken legs on a stick.. tell me you didn't bring the chicken legs.
ReplyDeleteSo, so, so happy for you!!!!!
ReplyDeletePraise the Lord!!!!!!!! So happy to see them in the arms of their loving family!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your family pic. All 8 of you. Wow. Like EMily, I cannot wait to hear all the details. But I remember what it was like while you're on the ground there...and will be patient! I'm impressed with how much you've already posted. And with your amazing room set up. See--that overweight baggage was totally worth it. And I KNOW there are lots of Asian women from those flights looking for the new American-style hair accessories so they can be up on western fashion trends.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a rush! Lovin' all the great photos of your new family. Can't wait to hear more about the gotcha moments. Now go enjoy all those beautiful boys...
ReplyDeleteIt's the post we've all been waiting for!!
ReplyDeleteSorry I was so so impatient! Okay, I'm not that sorry but glad you woke up to do a post!!
Yahooo!! They are adorable!!
My goodness you are going to have lots of fun!
We did the grocery cart thing, too.
One was the real stuff we were buying and the other was the stuff they threw into the cart! I'm thinking they had never been to a grocery store before- it was quite exciting!! They had no idea what they were throwing in but they loved every minute of it!
Congratulations! They are some handsome boys!
ReplyDeleteJill :)
What a beautiful family! Congratulations!
